The Crown-producer ging undercover in Buckingham Palace | Entertainment

entertainment">The 66-year-old Martin Childs went ‘undercover’ after an official request to view was rejected by the palace. “All I could think about walking around there was how we could turn these rooms into spaces where the action could take place. Where people could have conversations, how we could maintain the interest of the viewer there, ”Childs told the Royal Television Society.

entertainment">He tried to get along as much as possible by peeking from one room to other rooms where possible. The Queen’s and her family’s private rooms were not open to the public. Childs used information from other sources to compile a floor plan anyway.

entertainment">He used Wilton House in Wiltshire and London’s Lancaster House to record scenes set in Buckingham Palace.

entertainment">By the way, he was also a bit disappointed with the tour, because many rooms were very similar.
